Zell Wine Village in Mosel, Germany

Before this trip, I did not know about Zell much. I have been in the Mosel River before but didn't really pay any attention to the small villages. It's usually on the second and third visits that one would tend to see the less popular ones.


The Boos von Waldeckhof is a popular historical landmark in Zell. It sits across the river where the church and the tourist office is located.


Our afternoon break or late lunch in Zell.

But having said that, I found Zell a very attractive and quaint place.

We arrived in Zell in the afternoon of our 2nd day in the Mosel River Valley. Dutchman and I hiked from Bullay where we stayed at this lovely B&B on the river. The hike took approximately 3 hours because we followed the route through the vineyards and a small forest. This hiking route is called the Moselsteig Trail, but we only picked the Bullay to Zell trail.

We also took a few stops to enjoy the scenery, inspect the vines and the grapes and take lots of souvenir pictures. This has got to be the most beautiful hike we've both had so far.
